This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features a cast iron casing with 6" suction and 5" discharge ANSI Class 125 flanges. The pump uses a 9-1/2" diameter bronze impeller and a stainless steel shaft with a stainless steel shaft sleeve. The mechanical seal consists of a silicon-carbide seat, a carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for operation in clean water at temperatures up to 250°F. The unit incorporates a dry shaft design that prevents the circulating fluid from contacting the shaft.
This pump operates at 1750 RPM and is configured with a NEMA 256T frame motor at 60Hz. It is mounted on a welded base that includes an integral drip pan and a Woods coupler protected by a standard coupler guard. The pump assembly has a PEI of 0.92. The bearing housing uses permanently lubricated, sealed-for-life ball bearings that are replaceable without disturbing the piping connections.
